Todd Helton is the Rockies. For more than a decade, he has achieved a level of consistency and durability no other Colorado player has ever equaled.
As the Rockies open their National League division series today against the Phillies, Helton will be at first base and in the third spot in the lineup.
If shortstop Troy Tulowitzki is the franchise, Helton is the fixture.
“We all look to Todd,” outfielder Brad Hawpe said.
In aging, Helton has evolved, as a player and as a leader. At 36, he’s not the breathless slugger who can change a game with one swing. Helton’s value has changed with him. Where he benefits the Rockies most is not in statistics but rather in the dugout and in the clubhouse.

The most successful 10-game homestand in Rockies history finished with third baseman Garrett Atkins finally having a chance to feel at home.
Atkins’ two-run homer in the third inning Thursday afternoon was his first at Coors Field in nearly five months. It was part of a five-run inning that helped the National League Wild Card-leading Rockies to their seventh consecutive victory, 5-1 over the Reds.
Before facing the Mets, D-backs and Reds at Coors, the Rockies had been swept in three road games against the Giants to extend their losing streak to five games. But they won 9-of-10 against their lower-division visitors, and finished by sweeping the D-backs in three and the Reds in four. Now they own a 4 1/2-game Wild Card lead over the Giants and are two back of the NL West-leading Dodgers.

No longer are the Rockies talking about chasing the Dodgers.
After winning three of four at home against the Giants, the Rockies set their ambitions on catching the Dodgers in the National League West race. But after a five-game losing streak during which they dropped two at home to the Dodgers and absorbed a three-game weekend sweep at the hands of the Giants, the Rockies find themselves tied with the Giants atop the NL Wild Card standings.

Todd Helton received a lengthy standing ovation from fans and his teammates after smacking his 500th career double. That was simply a warmup act.
Helton followed up the milestone double by hitting the go-ahead homer in the eighth inning, propelling the Colorado Rockies to a 4-3 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday. “It was a good day,” he said. A good day, indeed. Yet the ever-modest Helton downplayed the landmark hit. The homer was a different story.
